Could you guys recommend a good set of replacement pads for my 14 is350 F sport. I too am getting sick of all the brake dust, however I don't want to go back to EBC Hawk or stoptech if these are even any of the top options.
I want something rotor friendly with no dust, with a bit of spirited driving with no real track time in the future.

How are people legitimately getting 50k on pads on the fronts. I had to replace rotors and pads on the front at 13k and I'm starting to get concerned it wasnt my driving habits..... There isn't a TSB out for this is there??????

I put about 4 miles per day with 4 stops going under 45mph on my 2014 IS350 F sport, I currently have 22k miles and changed the front pads at around 18k with about 2mm left on them. The rears look brand new. And I do drive like a grandpa as well. All of my other vehicle's, all various types, pads average about 60k and more.
So it is not the driving habits, it is the changes in the brake pads or other brake components.

My guess is that some F sports models came with non-f sport pads . There is no way it could last longer than 50k on legitimate f sport pads.

I am really starting to wonder whether I have the F Sport pads lol. I always just assumed they were due to how touchy they are compared to every other car I've driven, and how much brake dust they generate. Coming up on 22k miles now, and I have a roughly 8-mile commute with a few traffic lights - typically don't go over 45 MPH. I did have some bad brake squeal at about 17k, but got the rotors resurfaced.

I know the Akebono ACTs were mentioned above and these are F-Sport pad replacements, but can anyone confirm if this matters if the car is AWD or RWD? I am interested in purchased a set (F and R) on the F sport AWD (2015).
TIA.
